Review

Two V-8 engines are readily available in the 2016 Tundra: a 4.7-liter ranked at 310 hp and also 327 lb-ft of torque as well as a 5.7-liter with 381 hp and also 401 lb-ft. Both engines are paired specifically to a six-speed automatic transmission. Gas economy isn't really one of the Tundra's fortes with rear-drive variations rated at 15/19 mpg city/highway for the 4.7-liter and also 13/18 mpg with the larger 5.7-liter. Choosing 4x4 drops those numbers slightly to 14/18 mpg with the 4.7-liter as well as 13/17 mpg with the 5.7-liter. Depending upon the taxi design, engine and also drivetrain setup, the 2016 Tundra can tow 6,400 to 10,500 pounds when properly outfitted.

Safety

Along with the twin front, side-front, as well as side drape airbags, the 2016 Tundra comes standard with knee airbags for the vehicle driver as well as front traveler. Unseen area caution is readily available as part of the Minimal Costs package and requirement on the 1794 Version as well as the Platinum trim.

In a 2014 First Drive review, we claimed that while the interior and dash are well design, the material quality of the plastics used is a disappointment as a result of the low-grade products made use of. Flight and handling, on the other hand, are secure on- and also off-road while the seats offer a lot of assistance. We additionally claimed in a 2014 First Test of 1794 Version model that the cabin is noisier than its rivals while the exterior style isn't really as fresh. In addition, the 5.7-liter V-8 isn't as fast as several of its competitors that use advanced powertrains. Indoor space, on the other hand, is generous especially the huge back seats. For those that desire maximum off-road performance, we said in a 2015 First Drive testimonial that the Tundra TRD Pro really feels much better the quicker it could go. In addition, it does not obtain disturbed conveniently and also includes excellent guiding feedback and a well-tuned suspension than could handle high-speed off-roading.

Cool Reality
